I have 32 bit windows vista sp1 that i just installed all today. (i decided to go back to vista since i saw sp1 was out). But while being on xp i had installed 4GB of ram. Now on vista when i try to play crysis it lags like a mother!!!!! even more then my previous 1 gig of ram when i had vista before. WHat is the deal i thought sp1 was supposed to be faster, is there something i need to do?
 
its not about your ram, its that u have a crap cpu and since vista takes a bit more to run when u have crysis running its bogging your cpu down try turning off the physics in the game or lowering all your settings.
 
Vista SP1 doesn't make it faster (shouldn't, I guess). Lagging may well be caused by CPU not even worth mentioning, or a none-too-good graphics card. Maybe you should just try cleaning up all the crap from the HD/Registry and see if that helps. You may also want to disable pagefiles now that you presumably have enough memory.
 
Im running 2gb of stock clocked hp ram, AMD 5200 2.6ghz, and an xfx 8600gt xxx and vista is running better than ever!!
 
If you're experiencing slow downs while playing Crysis I would guess that it is your video card. Core 2 Duo processors are very good processors currently. You don't have a bad video card, but it's just not good enough for Crysis.
 
ram does not speed up ur comp frnds ...... it does not mean if u hav 4gb ram u can run anything on it .... its ur crap comp which is causin this mishap ...

I think we all know this!! The pc isnt that bad on his pc but the processor is and most likely the mobo is!! But as we all know changing the mobo on a dell is gonna be a challenge!!
 
Could be the CPU and GPU since its DX9, if you have to put settings all low and little by little bump them up until get what you want without much lag
